Prager University: The Electoral College - Double Credit Semester

"We teach what isn't taught." - Dennis Prager

The Electoral College is almost entirely misunderstood by almost the entire population of the United States - a fact which is a national disgrace, but like many things in American life, it's been done by those who want to dumb the people down.

Here's what you need to know:  If you are a Liberal, you should support the Electoral College.  If you are a Conservative, you should support the Electoral College.  If you are neither, you should support the Electoral College...The Electoral College was a genius function set up in the Constitution, and we should all hope it is never eliminated, because it is there to protect us all - regardless of our ideology.

It's important that you watch both semesters to understand the issue, so please give yourself 10 minutes.

This Semester of Prager University is presented by:  Tara Ross

Semster I:  "Do You Understand the Electoral College?"

"The Founders had no intention of creating a pure, majority-rule democracy...Pure democracies do not work.  They implode." - T.R.

Semester II:  "The Popular Vote vs. the Electoral College"

"Our Founders so deeply feared a tyranny of the majority that they rejected the idea of a direct vote for president.  That's why they created the Electoral College." - T.R.
